MY bad ,yes any idea how long for AIP?

No Idea. I am a Feb applicant and still waiting for SA and AIP. My background check is in process right now. AIP seems to be the one the very last step.

Anybody from Ontario waiting PR and received OHIP? Does we need to wait until AIP for the same?

I don't know for sure, but assume we can apply with OWP. Or perhaps 3 months after OWP issued. There's a fixed 3 month entitlement delay, but when they start the clock I'm not sure. Maybe 3 months after you get your SIN.

In Ontario to apply with only OWP you need to be hired by an employer and have at least 6 months employment contract. You also have to be continuously in Canada for approx 160ish days - I don't remember the exact number. Or apply with AIP.

The two previous posts indicated they just got AOR today and their application was received August 22nd. Don't panic, should have it next week.

in terms of the work under implied status, she can't work until the work permit is in her hands and she gets her SIN number

Another week passed by and almost 50 days since application received, still no AOR

Took us exactly 7 weeks (49 Days) to get AOR recently. You are not past that yet, bet it comes this week!

Edit: Actually just double checked and was 50 days! Someone who had their app received the same day as mine got their AOR 2 days before ours, which shows can be differences, I was also worried the app was being returned.

Hello guys,

I'm a newbie here. Here's my timeline for my "Inland Family Sponsorship: Spouse" application:

• Landed in Vancouver with visitor visa: July, 2017
• Mailed all applications together (sponsorship, PR, and OWP): Aug 15th, 2017
• Package received (according to Canada Post): Aug 17th, 2017
• AOR for Principal Applicant (PA) received via email: Oct 3, 2017
• AOR for Sponsor received via email: Oct 4, 2017

Since Oct 3, I have been trying to link my application (I'm the PA) to MyCIC account online but never succeeded. I filed report via webform multiple times about this technical issue, but received automatic response that didn't solve my case. I called CIC twice. The second phone call I was told that because my spouse's sponsorship application has not been approved yet, I cannot link the application. I was also told that the only application that is on their system is my PR application. The OWP application is not on their system yet. I don't know if the Sponsorship application is already on their system. I asked the officer but she can only release that info to my spouse directly and not to me.

And then I received a request for Schedule A on Oct 12. I have included my Police Certificate in my PR application package so now they only asked for Schedule A. So my only option to submit this Schedule A is by mail or through the IRCC webform (a link was provided in the email for this option).

Has anyone ever heard/experience anything like this? I'm a bit concerned that my OWP application isn't on their system yet. I need to start working. It's been three months here without income and I'm the head of the family. I'm also concerned that I still cannot link my application to MyCIC account. It's been 11 days.

What do you think guys?

What do you think guys?

People are saying the OWP wont appear on the system until 1-2 weeks after AOR.

And I think an OWP isn't issued until SA or AIP, which seems to be taking around 7 months...but someone can confirm this.

Not true. OWP takes 3-4 months in general.
